In our age of biomedicine, society often treats sickness and disability as problems in need of solution. Phenomena of embodied difference, however, have not always been seen in terms of lack and loss. 'Where Paralytics Walk and the Blind See' explores the case of early modern Catholic Canada under French rule and shows it to be a period rich with alternative understandings of infirmity, disease, and death. Counternarratives to our contemporary assumptions, these early modern stories invite us to creatively imagine ways of living meaningfully with embodied difference today.

« Des mains négatives sur les parois des grottes de Chauvet, de Pech' Merle ou de Gargas (moins 30 000 ans) aux expériences les plus récentes de certains artistes contemporains, toute une histoire de l'art peut s'écrire sous le prisme de la respiration. Entre ces deux bornes – le gravettien et le monde immédiatement contemporain –, cette étude tente de mettre en relief la force innovante du souffle et l'importance accordée à la respiration en tant que geste créateur. »--

This book provides comprehensive insights into all aspects of nursing care and research, with an up-to-date assessment of current clinical practices worldwide. Today's nurses play a significant role in clinical settings not only as caregivers, but also as educators and patient advocates helping all types of people from different socioeconomic backgrounds, religious beliefs, and political alignments.

This book aims to help healthcare providers and facilities give their patients excellent treatment and experiences, with a team of international experts presenting their best practices in the treatment of different metabolic and psychiatric diseases and conditions. The book is recommended for nurses, healthcare professionals, students and patients who are focused on the care of individuals, families, and communities.
